Juicy and flavorful bone-in chicken thighs baked to perfection in the oven with a simple blend of spices. Crispy skin and tender meat make this an easy and delicious meal.

Ingredients

Scale

8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure crispy skin.
Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and dried thyme.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken thighs, rubbing it in gently.
Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on a rimmed baking sheet or in a baking dish, making sure they are not touching.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
